Why it mattered
Ballyvoodane House matters for the exact reasons given in its official assessment, rather than merely because it is an old structure. The source records: This well composed house retains its original form, which is articulated by the decorative use of render to the eaves, windows and quoins. The varying use of window types further enlivens the façade. Although modest in form, this house contains subtle elaborate detail, which generates further interest in and significance of the building. This explains what the place adds to local life, the street or the surviving built history.
